we're working on it, martin.
fourth grade students from watkins elementary school in d.c..
video credit goes to the washington post.
this video made me cry,
for the loss of a great leader;
for the pride these children have;
for the hope of peace.
we have come a long way.
we still have even further to go.
the hateful, racist comments that were left on this site
sicken me.
it saddens me that there are people, of all color,
who are raising their children to think that
racial prejudice is something that needs to continue.
there is hope,
as can be seen on this clip,
that our children will carry on the dream
of dr. king.
spread the word.
walk the walk.
open your heart.
it's never too late.

(I am so behind as usual) Your words gave me chills, had my hair stand up, as we all should stand up. The video was amazing, crying now.
ReplyDeleteYou walk the walk sweetie, always do. You are an amazing teacher and mama and an inspiration. You lead by example and more. I'm proud to be your friend. (Did I ever tell you that?)
I love you.
